So why are we launching Google Chrome? Because we believe we can
add value for users and, at the same time, help drive innovation on the
web.

All of us at Google spend much of our time working inside a
browser. We search, chat, email and collaborate in a browser. And in
our spare time, we shop, bank, read news and keep in touch with friends
-- all using a browser. Because we spend so much time online, we began
seriously thinking about what kind of browser could exist if we started
from scratch and built on the best elements out there. We realized that
the web had evolved from mainly simple text pages to rich, interactive
applications and that we needed to completely rethink the browser. What
we really needed was not just a browser, but also a modern platform for
web pages and applications, and that's what we set out to build.

On
the surface, we designed a browser window that is streamlined and
simple. To most people, it isn't the browser that matters. It's only a
tool to run the important stuff -- the pages, sites and applications
that make up the web. Like the classic Google homepage, Google Chrome
is clean and fast. It gets out of your way and gets you where you want
to go.

you can do everything you said with opera and I think ff also. I didn't know removing a quarter inch line would make developers have common sense, I thought it was in security,m usability and customization

what browser doesn't use the addy bar as a search bar also?

have you been using maxon for that past 4 years

common sense? google is trying to use "duplicate tabs" as a big deal been using that for the past few years.

can google let you do this or manipulate your context menu anyway you want? without a plugin or an extension?

this is my context menu, duplicate tab is a right click away,I don't have to move my mouse anywhere on the page to make it happen.

I can make that as litte or as loaded as I want. Can google do that? no, even ff can't do that.

I can set java rules and script rules site by site.

I think not, now that pic show a browser who's developers had enough common sense to let me customise the browser how I like it, not how they like it. thats common sense.

so lets recap
I can make opera look like chrome
I can customise opera's right click context menu in any section
I can customise java, java script, cookies,referrer, proxy and even browser identification based on website,(each web page can have its own rules)

and thats just a few thing and not all and you think I can't customize nothing?

chrome can't even do any of that.

I don't want to argue, I'm testing chrome myself and so far its a piece of crap comparing to ff and opera's capabilities. and I know browsers like a back of my hand.

Well I just started playing with Opera and am not sure about it yet. It seems speedier than FF3 tho. FF3 likes to lock up on me when it gets too many security issues. Opera let some thru, but I just cleaned em with spybot. I dunno what kinda stuff DST4ME is talking about. It's all so confusing. I dunno much about setting up all the browser options hehehe. I will eventually try chrome, but I'm not sure if I can tell which one is best hehe. I just get confused about web browsers.

thats opera boss, after many tests I find opera beats ff's butt, but I don't want to start a browser war. Opera does everything righ off the box, I don't have to install million plugins and to make any adjustments to opera, I can do it myself and don't have to wait or search for any plugin/extensions.

I see I see, oh well no big, I do like the skin though... I'm an FF user (no preference really, I don't use that many fancy functions, just adblock and tha'ts about it, I just use FF for the security fact, no virus attacks ever since I switched to FF for the past few years heh).

I probably could just as easily switch to Opera without any hassle, but I don't feel the need to so I'm fine just now as well heh. Maybe there's a skin add-on that is based on Opera for FF.

lol they can do all the work they want, 15000K process per tab means they better give you some ram so you can run that browser, I mean we give norton and McAfee bad rating for using so many processes and thus being so heavy, and here chrome is putting those to shame
